NCT ID NCT07482826

First seen Apr 03, 2026 · Last updated May 19, 2026 · Updated 8 times

Summary

This study compares two types of keyhole spine surgery for middle-aged and older adults with lumbar spinal stenosis (a condition where the spine narrows and presses on nerves). One surgery just removes the pressure on the nerves, while the other also fuses the bones together. The goal is to see which approach provides better pain relief and daily function with fewer risks. The study will involve 176 participants aged 50 to 75.
